Genes linked to Tubulinopathy-associated dysgyria
TUBA1A: Tubulin alpha-1A chain
An alpha-tubulin chain that pairs with beta-tubulin to build microtubules. Microtubules provide tracks for transport and help shape dividing and migrating cells, making TUBA1A especially important for fetal brain development.
6 disease-causing and 3 uncertain variants in TUBA1A are linked to Tubulinopathy-associated dysgyria.

Same protein, different disease
- Tubulinopathy is also caused by TUBA1A variants; they fall mostly in different places as the Tubulinopathy-associated dysgyria variants (101 disease-causing).
- Lissencephaly due to TUBA1A mutation is also caused by TUBA1A variants; they fall mostly in different places as the Tubulinopathy-associated dysgyria variants (62 disease-causing).
- TUBA1A-associated tubulinopathy is also caused by TUBA1A variants; they fall mostly in different places as the Tubulinopathy-associated dysgyria variants (3 disease-causing).

About this data
Variant–disease links come from ClinVar, Open Targets and UniProt, pooled from the latest public CATVariant analysis of each human protein. Evidence scores use the ACMG/AMP Bayesian points scale with computable criteria only (position among known disease variants, rarity in gnomAD, calibrated predictors, deep mutational scanning); there is no family or patient data, so they prioritise variants for expert review and never classify them.
